You don't need to be able to paint, draw or design as you will be guided through the whole process right from the beginning. \n\nA primed MDF blank doll with Frida's face is supplied so that you can unleash your inner couturier and design a unique dress for her! You will find plenty of inspiration in the studio as Gabriela has an extensive collection of photographs of Frida Kalho's clothing and accessories taken during her visit to the artist's house last year. A generous selection of beautiful vintage and contemporary papers as well as vibrantly coloured acrylic paints provides further inspiration and is available for your use. \n\nPlease note that this is a small group experience to allow for plenty of individual attention to each and every one of the participants. To make the day even more enjoyable and fuel your creativity, a Mexican-inspired lunch and margaritas are included in the cost of the workshop!","price":12500,"prevPrice":null,"dates":[{"startDateTime":"2019-03-31T09:00:00.000Z","duration":450,"weekend":true,"timeOfDay":"Daytime","price":12500,"totalAvailability":5,"availability":5,"locationId":"5971ea189579aaac5ab9185e","cancelled":false,"notified":true,"location":"Camberwell, SE5 9BT","locationDetails":{"_id":"5971ea189579aaac5ab9185e","schoolId":"wmAP7WQGJP6kSt8pD","area":"Camberwell","line1":"6 Empress Mews, off Kenbury Street","city":"London","postcode":"SE5 9BT","name":"Gabriela Szulman Art","createdAt":"2017-07-21T15:58:15.056Z","createdBy":"s58c4yNqSmzHQcJvH","archived":false,"geolocation":{"lat":51.4703488,"lng":-0.09756469999999999},"updatedAt":"2018-07-24T08:38:56.893Z","region":"South London"}},{"startDateTime":"2019-09-29T09:00:00.000Z","duration":450,"weekend":true,"timeOfDay":"Daytime","price":12500,"totalAvailability":5,"availability":5,"locationId":"5971ea189579aaac5ab9185e","cancelled":false,"notified":true,"location":"Camberwell, SE5 9BT","locationDetails":{"_id":"5971ea189579aaac5ab9185e","schoolId":"wmAP7WQGJP6kSt8pD","area":"Camberwell","line1":"6 Empress Mews, off Kenbury Street","city":"London","postcode":"SE5 9BT","name":"Gabriela Szulman Art","createdAt":"2017-07-21T15:58:15.056Z","createdBy":"s58c4yNqSmzHQcJvH","archived":false,"geolocation":{"lat":51.4703488,"lng":-0.09756469999999999},"updatedAt":"2018-07-24T08:38:56.893Z","region":"South London"}},{"startDateTime":"2019-11-23T10:00:00.000Z","duration":450,"weekend":true,"timeOfDay":"Daytime","price":12500,"totalAvailability":5,"availability":5,"locationId":"5971ea189579aaac5ab9185e","cancelled":false,"notified":true,"location":"Camberwell, SE5 9BT","locationDetails":{"_id":"5971ea189579aaac5ab9185e","schoolId":"wmAP7WQGJP6kSt8pD","area":"Camberwell","line1":"6 Empress Mews, off Kenbury Street","city":"London","postcode":"SE5 9BT","name":"Gabriela Szulman Art","createdAt":"2017-07-21T15:58:15.056Z","createdBy":"s58c4yNqSmzHQcJvH","archived":false,"geolocation":{"lat":51.4703488,"lng":-0.09756469999999999},"updatedAt":"2018-07-24T08:38:56.893Z","region":"South London"}}]},"blockBooking":[],"flexitime":{"price":12000,"prevPrice":null,"minGroupSize":4,"maxGroupSize":6,"daysNotice":5,"availableDays":["Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday","Sunday"],"disabledDays":[],"times":[{"value":540,"label":"09:00 to 16:00"},{"value":570,"label":"09:30 to 16:30"},{"value":600,"label":"10:00 to 17:00"},{"value":630,"label":"10:30 to 17:30"}],"location":{"_id":"5971ea189579aaac5ab9185e","schoolId":"wmAP7WQGJP6kSt8pD","area":"Camberwell","line1":"6 Empress Mews, off Kenbury Street","city":"London","postcode":"SE5 9BT","name":"Gabriela Szulman Art","createdAt":"2017-07-21T15:58:15.056Z","createdBy":"s58c4yNqSmzHQcJvH","archived":false,"geolocation":{"lat":51.4703488,"lng":-0.09756469999999999},"updatedAt":"2018-07-24T08:38:56.893Z","region":"South London"}},"reviews":[{"avatar":"https://graph.facebook.com/v2.11/10154864440526786/picture?type=square&width=150","name":"Sarah","reviewValue":10,"createdAt":"2018-11-12T11:55:49.378Z","reviewTxt":"Absolutely brilliant class with the added benefit of a phenomenal lunch.

I was totally new to decoupage and although interested in art I had never done any practical art since leaving school, many years ago! \nGabriela was a fantastic tutor , kind , helpful and encouraging. The whole process lasted all day and so calls for concentration and application but the time literally flew by! Her studio/ home is delightful a gallery in itself. We were made to feel very welcome and she provided a wonderful luncheon for us. She is an interesting host and I thoroughly recommend this course to anyone considering it. My daughter and I took home wonderful Frida Kahlo inspired dolls to hang on the wall and we will certainly be returning to do another of Gabriela's courses soon."},{"name":"Lorena","reviewValue":10,"createdAt":"2018-06-29T13:03:31.795Z","reviewTxt":"Last Sunday I was in a full-day Frida's workshop on Gabriela's studio. Great experience from start to finish. Gabriela was a great teacher showing the decoupage and painting techniques. \nThe group was small which was great because everyone received individual attention and support. \nGabriela is super patient and enthusiastic and her studio is incredible, every corner is very inspirational. Last but not least, the food experience was \"a m a z i n g\" homemade cook, healthy and tasty, authentic mexican tortillas, great salads an vibrant margaritas! . I would definitely recommend doing this workshop with Gabriela!"},{"name":"Elizabeth","reviewValue":10,"createdAt":"2018-11-13T14:30:13.435Z","reviewTxt":"Really enjoyable workshop and lunch was delicious.

She creates prints and collages, greeting cards, jewellery and scarves with images inspired by memory, nostalgia and a love of everything vintage. \n\nHer work is often humorous and whimsical – unless her romantic side takes over and then you enter into a fairy-tale territory of old-fashioned script, pages of books and music scores populated by chivalrous gentlemen, glamorous ladies, butterflies and rabbits. She blends a fusion of painting and digital media – acrylic, watercolour and ink with digital print – onto paper and canvas to create pictures, quirky greetings cards and a range of “art to wear” which so far includes silk scarves and a jewellery collection. \n\nOld photograph albums, vintage documents, magazines, books, cards, knitting pattern books and scraps of writing are things that make Gabriela very happy. Second-hand bookshops, junk shops, market stalls, attics and long-forgotten boxes are her treasure trove.\n\nIn addition to her own creative pursuits, she is passionate about inspiring other people and sharing her skills, so she devotes a good portion of her time to teaching.","schoolId":"wmAP7WQGJP6kSt8pD","category":"art","subcategory":"painting","summaryDuration":"7.5 hour workshop","abilityLevel":"Beginner","notes":"Please wear suitable clothes as you'll be using paint and glue.

Classes

7.5 hour workshop

Daytime

This workshop has been created to coincide with the upcoming V&A exhibition "Making herself up", where Frida Kahlo's wardrobe and personal possessions are being shown for the first time outside Mexico.

You will spend a fun day in Gabriela's studio learning to use painting and decoupage techniques to create your very own art doll inspired by the Mexican painter. You don't need to be able to paint, draw or design as you will be guided through the whole process right from the beginning.

A primed MDF blank doll with Frida's face is supplied so that you can unleash your inner couturier and design a unique dress for her! You will find plenty of inspiration in the studio as Gabriela has an extensive collection of photographs of Frida Kalho's clothing and accessories taken during her visit to the artist's house last year. A generous selection of beautiful vintage and contemporary papers as well as vibrantly coloured acrylic paints provides further inspiration and is available for your use.

Please note that this is a small group experience to allow for plenty of individual attention to each and every one of the participants. To make the day even more enjoyable and fuel your creativity, a Mexican-inspired lunch and margaritas are included in the cost of the workshop!

Did you know?

Frida Kahlo was the “original selfie queen”, says author Susana Martínez Vidal. “Nearly a century earlier than today’s global obsession she detected and compulsively exploited this human need to share one’s image to feel less alone.” She was, Vidal adds, her “own best work of art” and if she were alive today she would “be a real influencer … with a legion of followers”. As Frida herself put it, “I am my own muse, I am the subject I know the best.”

Absolutely brilliant class with the added benefit of a phenomenal lunch. My Frida has been everywhere with me since! I achieved so much more of a complex piece than I thought I could have done in the time allowed. Thanks Gabriela!

This was a very enjoyable course. I was totally new to decoupage and although interested in art I had never done any practical art since leaving school, many years ago!
Gabriela was a fantastic tutor , kind , helpful and encouraging. The whole process lasted all day and so calls for concentration and application but the time literally flew by! Her studio/ home is delightful a gallery in itself. We were made to feel very welcome and she provided a wonderful luncheon for us. She is an interesting host and I thoroughly recommend this course to anyone considering it. My daughter and I took home wonderful Frida Kahlo inspired dolls to hang on the wall and we will certainly be returning to do another of Gabriela's courses soon.

Last Sunday I was in a full-day Frida's workshop on Gabriela's studio. Great experience from start to finish. Gabriela was a great teacher showing the decoupage and painting techniques.
The group was small which was great because everyone received individual attention and support.
Gabriela is super patient and enthusiastic and her studio is incredible, every corner is very inspirational. Last but not least, the food experience was "a m a z i n g" homemade cook, healthy and tasty, authentic mexican tortillas, great salads an vibrant margaritas! . I would definitely recommend doing this workshop with Gabriela!

Really enjoyable workshop and lunch was delicious. Gabriela's studio is an amazing space to work in, the group was small so we all received a lot of individual support and attention.
My daughter and I were really happy with the Frida Kahlo dolls we had made. We would definitely recommend doing this workshop with Gabriela.

About your host, Gabriela Szulman Art

Gabriela is an artist and maker. She creates prints and collages, greeting cards, jewellery and scarves with images inspired by memory, nostalgia and a love of everything vintage.

Her work is often humorous and whimsical – unless her romantic side takes over and then you enter into a fairy-tale territory of old-fashioned script, pages of books and music scores populated by chivalrous gentlemen, glamorous ladies, butterflies and rabbits. She blends a fusion of painting and digital media – acrylic, watercolour and ink with digital print – onto paper and canvas to create pictures, quirky greetings cards and a range of “art to wear” which so far includes silk scarves and a jewellery collection.

In addition to her own creative pursuits, she is passionate about inspiring other people and sharing her skills, so she devotes a good portion of her time to teaching.
